NINE LESSONS AND CAROLS SERVICE 2023
The Christmas season truly starts with this traditional service, which took place this year on Sunday 17th December.
A full strength choir was joined by an extensive band of talented young musicians, who all somehow squeezed into the church to produce superb music under the leadership of our Director of Music Ralph Barlow.
The church was full, and the congregation enjoyed singing festive carols, accompanied also by organist Clive Brearley.
